We are a nonprofit advocacy organization committed to ending intimate partner abuse in families and the community. Our shelter in rural Fayette County, Kentucky is surrounded by a beautiful 40-acre property. We farm this land to offer nature-based healing, nutritious field-to-table produce, and job training for survivors.
The process of making the following products encourages collaborative work and economic opportunity in a safe and caring environment for survivors of intimate partner abuse. We are Kentucky Proud! Handmade by Survivors products include: Lip Balms * Cold Press Soaps * Soy Candles * Bath Salts, and * Gift Boxes.
Flowers For Events: Your flower purchase supports nature-based healing opportunities on the farm that surrounds our emergency shelter for survivors and their children. Our farm is supported by research related to healing outcomes of therapeutic gardens and “social farming” as a means to promote healing and community networks in rural areas. The farm also provides job training and micro-enterprise opportunities for survivors, while raising funding to support our mission. Your purchase of fresh-cut flowers from our farm supports survivors of intimate partner abuse during their journey of safety and self-sufficiency. Our small farm can only fulfill a limited number of event flower orders during our flower growing season. Flowers are provided ready for do-it-yourself arranging.
